We happened upon this little restaurant at 304 Rancier Ave in Killeen, TX when we were at the bank opening our business account and our teller (also a good friend) told us about it. She said it was a new restaurant that we had to try and that she had the chicken previously but was going back that day to try their tacos. Everyone in the bank was going crazy over Krispy & Juicy Chicken so we immediately drove over there after we left.
We pulled into the parking lot in front of the restaurant (only enough room for about 5 cars in the front) and quickly realized this was one of those mom & pop type places. As soon as we opened the door we could tell the owners took pride in their little restaurant and went to a lot of trouble to make the atmosphere warm & appealing.
We were greeted by the owners that made us feel like we were at home the minute they said hello. Our first meal we tried was the rotisserie chicken which took our breath away. It was the best rotisserie chicken I have ever had! We've been hooked ever since! We try different things but always go back to the chicken, tacos and beans!
They know us now by name and by what we order. They know exactly how we like our food and make us feel at home every time. They even go so far as to give us something to snack on while we wait for our food if we are taking it to go!
The service and food make Krispy & Juicy Chicken one of the best restaurants in Killeen.

Let me know if they would like to expand to Illinois (Chicago). Lots of chicken consumers here.
Yummy! I'm hungry. No yummy chicken places in our area. Maybe they'd open a place in Washington?
Hi, tara, I think I'll be trying it this week (next week???). Sounds yummy, and you know how much I like lunching. You're still on the list.
Tara,
Sounds like a great place, thanks for sharing. If we are in the area we will need to check it out.
Tara,
Makes me hungry!
David...I'll let them know!
Olga...I'll tell them they really need to think about broadening their horizons & open in all kinds of places!
Richard O...Great! Let me know if you think as highly of it as I do. :) Thanks for keeping me on the list, its greatly appreciated!
Richard W...Most definately need to try it out if you head this way!
Sheila...Im getting hungry just thinking about it too! Might be a Krispy & Juicy day!
Hi Tara,
Richard and I went to lunch at Krispy and Juicy yesterday, and it's every bit as good as you said! Not only was the food outstanding, but the interior of the restaurant was a lovely surprise. The proprietors were friendly, the atmosphere welcoming, and there will definitely be a repeat visit or twelve!
Linda!!!!!! GREAT!!!!!! I love their food and want to get their name out there so everyone can experience how great they are! Im glad you enjoyed it as much as we do! It is a once a week excursion for us!
Sounds like a great place to try.
we have certainly had some delightful meals in Mom & Pop establishments - all the way from Minnesota to Florida and back.
Irene...it is soooooo yummy
Kathleen...mom & pop restaurants are the BEST!
Tara...we need on of these here in Blue Ridge Ga...it would do well here!
I love the Mom & Pop places too and will drive way out of my way to dine there instead of some faceless chain. Thanks for the tip!!
Patty...I bet they would! I think they would do good anywhere if they got their name out!
Betina...the mom & pops are the BEST! I do the same...drive around to try some place different!
